    1. I'm on record as saying that Democrats should embrace celebrity culture and field celebrity candidates.

        although I'm willing to trade nationalities with you if it means I can win a Wright. Let's say... $5000 (USD)

        2. The question is which celebrity should Dems run. Some names suggested here: https://twitter.com/johnahare/status/819596014885683200 …

        Can't argue with that strategy. Esp. when you consider the star that Al Franken is.

        Nah. Celebrity recognition and charisma would most likely be embodied in an unelectable far-lefty. Bernie with a better haircut.

        would probably have more success with a tech celebrity than a movie celeb. A Zuckerberg or a Musk type.

        Zuckerberg was half the problem with the spread of fake news this past election. He can suck it.
